Former Tag Partner Sends Well-Wishes as Deville Faces Setback
In a heartfelt gesture, former NXT Women’s Champion Mandy Rose reached out to her ex-tag partner, Sonya Deville, who recently suffered a significant injury. Just three weeks into her first championship run, Deville encountered a torn ACL during a tag match where she teamed up with Chelsea Green against Bianca Belair and Charlotte Flair on the July 28 SmackDown episode.
Deville took to Twitter to express her gratitude for the overwhelming support she’s received and voiced her disappointment over the abrupt halt to her and Chelsea Green’s women’s tag title journey. In response, Mandy Rose, who has shared a close bond with Deville both inside and outside the ring, retweeted Deville’s statement with a touching message, “Love u friend. Speedy recovery. Ur as strong as they come.”
The duo’s camaraderie dates back to their WWE Tough Enough days in 2015. As Sonya faces a recovery period, possibly extending to six months, the wrestling community and fans alike are rallying behind her, hoping for a swift and successful recovery.
Love u friend! Speedy recovery, ur as strong as they come!! ❤️🙏🏻👊🏻 https://t.co/t2h1Piwo6s
